Just squish them, squish them fast. I made the mistake as a young girl of stepping on a very large wolf spider and having all of the babies whoosh off of the momma. Freaked me out!!!

I like anything that eats the bugs that piss me off.

When I was 9, my parents went to visit family that had a car dealership in Texas, and do a “family deal” on a trade-in.
While I was playing in a couple of cars on the lot, my older brother (13) was getting a tour of the muscle cars they had.
While playing, I came across several black widow spiders that had made their webs in the car. We had been shown them in school and my father had killed one in our garage a few years before.
I particularly remember the snare-webs all around the car I was in, and watched a small bug get killed. I remember that was one of the first times of me seeing something killed in nature.
Then I noticed some spider webs on the window edges and some down around the pedals, and even webs in each of the door handle insets.
All I remember is freaking out, and my parents finally got me out of the car after a few minutes of wrestling with the door.
It was a ’63 Black VW Bug w/ Red interior…how ironic is that?
I will never forget that experience.

I have learned to live with spiders, no matter how big. There’s tons of them in my basement wood working shop. I eventually learned to stop battling them and just let them eat all the other bugs, like those horrible house centipedes. It’s either lot’s of spiders, or alot more of everything else.

My 11yr old Son can’t walk by a spider with out trying to pick’em up, I try to warn him, I hope “we” won’t have to learn the hard way.
